i had a difficult weekend (probably as expected). but i'm feeling much better now. 
i heard a quote this weekend that, although i'm agnostic, made me think and actually gave me some hope:
God doesn't call the prepared, He prepares the called. although this doesn't do anything for me in a religious way, i still found it comforting. i think it is absolutely a wonderful...

The day was good, thank you, actually it was so good that I took the second one, not that smart from my side, but I needed rest.

Your too hot.
my cousin and his wife (who are both my age) just had their first baby. little Mia was born on sunday evening in milwaukee, wi, shortly after the packers kicked bear ass 
she's a gorgeous, perfect little baby girl. both mom and baby are totally healthy.
it's nice to have something to be happy about, something nice to share

my SG screenname, as should be obvious, is a tribute to an actor and a character that i adore, Det. Lennie Briscoe, played by Jerry Orbach.
until recently, my knowledge of Mr. Orbach was limited to his involvement with the Law & Order series. however, it has been brought to my attention (and i'm grateful for it) that Jerry Orbach was a man of many...

Good blog, I like Law and Order too.
cattie:
Thanks for your comment
I use to watch the original Law and Order but now I am more of an SVU watcher.
hey all, i just added a new album of pics. they aren't great, but as a first attempt i don't think they're too terrible.
the boyfriend took them (he pretended that he was doing me a huge favor, but certain anatomical changes led me to believe he enjoyed the process too
)
in other news, i chipped a vertebrae in my lower back yesterday. i...

You know, as her best friend, you really should do something about Amarena's unnatural and unhealthy affiliation with the Bears . . . friends don't let friends do that type of stuff.

Duuuuuuuuuuude! That's so crazy you mention SG Must Die, because Tooter and I meant to watch it during our free trial of Showtime...but it never happened. lol
That would be an epic night indeed. So I FINALLY will know my schedule tomorrow. (My boss had to make last minute changes because one of our part-timers is back from medical leave. Let's hope they are good changes, dammit!) Tomorrow I'll hit you up with a text, fb/sg message, hell maybe even all 3.
Oh, and by the way...
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MINUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE

i think i've finally turned a corner, and i have all y'all to thank. your kindness over the past few weeks has helped me realize that i deserve better from myself.
i never tell people my new years resolutions. i have a hard time keeping them and then feel like a failure when everyone i've told can see that i haven't accomplished my goals. however,...

You have very nice cheekbones, by the way. I know that's sort of a random statement, but I think that every time I see your picture, so I thought I'd mention it!
sambucus:
Thanks, a lot.
I'll check it out.

I'll check it out.
i'm looking for new books to read. my Charlaine Harris, Jim Butcher, and Harry Potter series are getting a bit run down...as in they're starting to fall apart
has anyone read anything lately that they just loved?

This may sound quite out of left field, but I've recently been re-reading the works of P.G. Wodehouse (creator of Jeeves and Wooster), and they remain some of the most laugh-out-loud stories ever put to paper--you want a reading adventure? Give him a shot and be sure to let me know what you think!!!

Hi Honey, You are absolutely the sweetest, most wonderful lady on the planet! Have you read any James Patterson? His stuff reads very quickly, but is good for a weekend
Take care honey, you're the best!
blogging in anger is never a good thing.
well....okay, it's cathartic and as an added bonus i had people vindicating my anger, which was nice. a lot of times i feel like i'm being too hard on the boyfriend when he does something to upset me. although i've tried to let go of old(ish) grudges, they still tend to pop up when he does something...

after being burned more than once in my current relationship, i'm just not sure how many "coincidences" i'm supposed to let slide without getting angry. cause, to be honest, i feel like a bitch when i get upset about him coming home an hour after he's told me he's going to be home or when he's staying late at work or going...

Do I have to bust someone's kneecaps???
And honey, you haven't given him a second chance. You've given him a third, fourth, fifth, etc.
Sigh. And just when I was finally letting him out of the doghouse...

Yeah, I'm like the last person in the world to offer advise on relationships, but I certainly know how it feels not being able to trust and it sucks out loud, because without trust you have nothing.
